Abstract
We investigate the relative computing power of Turing machines with differences in the number of work tapes, heads pro work tape, instruction repertoire etc. We concentrate on the k-tape, k-head and k-head jump models as well as the 2-way multihead finite automata with and without jumps. Differences in computing power between machines of unlike specifications emerge under the real-time restriction. In particular it is shown that k+1 heads are more powerful than k heads for real-time Turing machines.
